maybe im just being a cynic here, but i find it EXTREMELY coincidental that after Pioli has his big media blitz, asking him specific questions about Cassel, the coaches ability to bench him, and Pioli's job secutity here, that NOW we move away from Cassel. seems like a bunch of crap to me. no amount of benching Cassel, now, should keep anyones (esp Pioli) job. to little to late! Crennel is being played by the puppet master oh so well.

"No. I did not," said Crennel. "I just thought the quarterback position was the one I needed to change."

yeah, right. Pioli told you to make a switch to try and keep his job.
am i the only one that thinks this?

and yes, this does almost nothing to our hopes of getting #1 overall. if anything, i think the longer Quinn is under center, the more he will become exposed.

You're definitely not the only one that thinks that. Pioli is in scramble mode right now. He knows the writing is on the wall. Unluckily for him (and luckily for us) I don't see anything being turned around this year with Quinn at QB, so he's still screwed.

Mat, i take reposibilty for that. i talked him up. i bought a #40 Nike jersey, i changed my avatar, my sig and thought he would be "pre-CIA" good. i mean come on. i watched him pull a GD truck up and down his street. how could he fail us?!?

again, i'm sorry and take full resposibility for overhyping him.

btw, i still wanna love him so bad. i'm just looking for a big run or any signs of life (you know like actually playing in a game) and i am jumping right back on his bandwagon.

Well, in fairness, I've been on that bandwagon since before they signed him. Man, I thought last year was bad.

Just curious: who do Chiefs fans want/predict will be their next GM/head coach combination? I know most fans want to see the current regime scrapped but I haven't heard many ideas regarding who will replace them.

Well, if you asked the average Chiefs fan, I think they would mention the old familiar names...Marty, Cowher...not that it would be a good idea. As the loses pile up along with the historically bad play (you have to go back to 1940 to find an NFL team that hasn't lead its opponent at any time during regulation play in the first 7 games of the season), it will be tough for the Hunt family not to blow the organization up and start over.

I want Marc Ross to be GM. As far as HC goes, I like Ray Horton a lot.

I thought there was a chance we missed the playoffs, but I didn't think we'd be first overall pick awful. And we are.

I hate stealing ideas from Kevin Keitzman cause I find him ridiculously over the top sometimes, but he brought up the possibility of Herm Edwards as GM and it makes a lot of sense. Take Herm off the field where his game management won't be a hindrance and let him scout and find football players. If it weren't for Herm's drafting, I shudder at the thought of how horrific this football team would be.
